Tom Brady sends best wishes to the Chiefs and Eagles ahead of the Super Bowl
Tom Brady took to Twitter to send his best wishes to the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles ahead of the Super Bowl.
The seven-time champion announced his retirement from the NFL earlier this month, ending a stellar 23-year career, 20 of which was spent with the New England Patriots, and his last three with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The 45-year-old will be spending the offseason as a retired player for the first time in over two decades but that certainly isn’t stopping him from consuming the game he loves.

Shortly before the 58th edition of the Super Bowl kicked off, the five-time NFL MVP offered his best wishes to both the Chiefs and the Eagles, as well as their respective quarterbacks, Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts.

He tweeted: “Two of the best tonight in Pat and Jalen. Good luck to KC and Philly, can’t wait to watch”.
Brady has personal experience dealing with Mahomes – who was awarded the league’s MVP award this season – as he defeated the two-time NFL MVP in the Super Bowl in 2021.
Having announced his initial retirement from football in 2022, the California native reneged on his decision just six weeks later, as he declared his return to the league, citing “unfinished business”.

His last season in the league was certainly a difficult one, as Brady and the Bucs’ finished with a losing record of 8-9, a first time occurrence in Brady’s illustrious career.
Despite announcing his retirement for a second time, some people were still not convinced, believing Brady could make yet another return, but those hopes were soon crushed as he submitted official retirement paperwork with the NFL this month.
